Mar. 7 Saturday of the Second Week of Lent; Opt. Mem. of Sts. Perpetua and Felicity, Martyrs, Opt. Mem.

The parable of the prodigal son brings out even more clearly the free choice of God. This time his choice falls on one who is least worthy of it. The prodigal son of the parable is a figure representing us. We are the real prodigal sons whom God has forgiven and brought back into his love and made heirs of the messianic promises. We do not know why we were chosen. If God is so good to forgive our past, call us to salvation and make us recipients of the heritage of his kingdom, it is important that we return to him with a truly contrite heart, and never wander back to the path of sin. How well the Eucharistic celebration today expresses our sentiment of gratitude for the pardon and salvation he sends us through his Son, our Lord Jesus Christ. --St. Andrew Bible Missal
